so, i had my brown hen sitting on 15 eggs , brooding them, some of her them were her's and some not. About 14 days into the 21 day
hatching process i came home only to find my frizzle hen sitting with her, she was laying fresh eggs in the nest daily but i didn't know
so today the eggs have finally hatched, 10 chicks but alot of eggs left in the nest because they are not the same age as the others lol the hatch rate was 100 % but my frizzle is a bit heavy and inexperienced (7 months) so she accidentally killed some chicks.
Here they are
just thought i'd share my experience with you guys, if you need any tips on natural hatching just message me.
